Wrong ToUnicode table for ZapfDingbats font
by Christoph Reller 09 Jun '16

09 Jun '16

Hi, Consider the following MWE, that displays a ZapfDingbats check mark: \definefontsynonym[ZapfDingbats][file:ZapfDingbats][features=dingbats] \definefont[zapfdingbats][ZapfDingbats] \starttext \getnamedglyphdirect{ZapfDingbats*dingbats}{a19} \stoptext In earlier versions, e.g., 2016.03.13, the font in the PDF contains a correct ToUnicode table with: ... 1 beginbfchar <0013> <2713> endbfchar ... In the currently newest version, 2016.06.08, the ToUnicode table lacks the entry for the check mark: ... 0 beginbfchar endbfchar ... Hence, the check mark cannot be copy pasted from the PDF. I fear this may be a bug. Or am I missing something? Any feedback is welcome. Christoph

beta
by Hans Hagen 08 Jun '16

08 Jun '16

Hi, I uploaded a new beta. This version has (experimental) support for color fonts. (not to be confused with 'coloring text in a font'). \definefontfeature[svg] [default][svg=yes] \definefontfeature[colored][default][colr=yes] % \definefont[Emoj][file:emojionecolor-svginot.ttf*default,svg] % \definefont[Emoj][file:seguiemj.ttf*default,colored] \definesymbol[bug1][\getglyphdirect{file:emojionecolor-svginot.ttf*svg}{\char"1F41B}] \definesymbol[bug2][\getglyphdirect{file:seguiemj.ttf*colored} {\char"1F41B}] \startTEXpage [width=10em,align=middle,offset=1em] There are several kind of bugs, like \symbol [bug1] and \symbol [bug2], also in \CONTEXT ! \stopTEXpage The colr features uses (if present) the overlay method (microsoft fonts have that) which is quite clean and efficient, while the svg one uses (when present) svg information from the font. Caching the later one will take some initial time (due to conversion, i might figure out something better) and needs inkscape installed. Attached an example. I didn't look too extensively for a font, but on the agenda is turning the cowfont in a color one (maybe for the ctx meeting). At some point I might add overloading of colors (for the overlay variant).

issue in the wiki
by Pablo Rodriguez 08 Jun '16

Dear list, modifying http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/hrule#Example, I added an "\hrule height .25in". I’m afraid that this command make all rules vanish in the final document. The same source compiles fine with latest beta (2016.05.22 15:18) on my laptop. Is there anything that I’m missing or have i hit a bug? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Dear list, does context split table cells like Word (sorry for that ;-)) would do? (Please see the attached pdf examples). The table_test was generated with \starttext \bTABLE[split=yes] \setupTABLE[frame=off] \setupTABLE[column][1][width=3.5cm] \setupTABLE[column][2][width=11cm] \dorecurse{3}{\bTR \bTD xxx \eTD \bTD \input knuth \eTD \eTR} \eTABLE \stoptext kind regards Erik

Redirect compilation to another .pdf?
by Lukáš Procházka 06 Jun '16

06 Jun '16

Hello, is there a way to tell ConTeXt to generate a .pdf named otherwise instead of the name derived from file to be compiled? Let's have A.tex to be compiled and an existing A.pdf which cannot be written into, e.g. due to being open by a viewer. The "context.exe A.tex" fails as the A.pdf cannot be open for writing. The "context.exe A.tex --result=A2.pdf" fails too, as Ctx tries to write into A.pdf (derived from A.tex) first and later tries to rename A.pdf to A2.pdf. There is a way - "copy /y A.tex A2.tex & context.exe A2.tex" but it has some disadvantages - the .log, .tuc etc. will be named A2.log, A2.tuc etc., messages will refer to "A2" rather than to "A" etc. So best seems to me to have an option to tell ConTeXt to produce a .PDF WITH A DESIRED NAME from the beginning... Is there a way to do so? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.
